From Ironworks ToS
No Piracy: DO NOT post links to 'warez sites'. Do not discuss pirating games, bragging about pirating or anything else. This will get your account suspended or banned. The only possible thing you CAN discuss is the so-called 'cracks' for no CD operation. SOME Games don't work on some peoples CD-ROM's. This is because of a special copy protection called 'Safe Disc'. But that is it. Anything else is considered pirating.

<font color=skyblue>Just in case you were not sure, the link and rule that Rokenn posted also applies to books. [img]smile.gif[/img] No discussion of such activity will be tolerated on our website.

A better question would be: "Can somebody help me find the books I need?" </font>

I think it's more of a question about where to find legitimate copies available for download, I know alot of authors have started using a free library system where you can download parts of a book or the whole thing, and they have said that they enjoy the greater publicity they get as well as increasing actual book sales.

there are some good ravenloft books but alot of bad ones, check out www.kargatane.com the official ravenloft website for some reviews, most of them are pretty accurate, and there's enough different points of view to give an accurate picture.

True, Morguerat. There are a LOT of books available for legitimate download. I have to add though, that it mostly concerns the works of non-contemporary authors. For example, you can read Shakespeare online but not Grisham. And then of course there are the authors who publish their books online themselves, some out of idealism, and some simply because their books are too crappy to by published by any real publishing house. The internet is the ideal medium for mediocre writers to reach a large audience.

Anyway, I doubt you could find a legal copy of Ravenloft novels online (why anyone would want to is beyond me, based on my admittedly limited knowledge of Ravenloft books) so this would fall under piracy/warez in any case.
